Need a couple hole drilled in my tank

[coralreef321]

Was wondering if there is anyone on here that could drill a couple holes in my 26gal bow front. Just need a 1inch overflow and a 3/4 return. Not interested in paying an arm and a leg to have a glass shop or LFS do it. So if someone can help me out I can bring the tank to you and pay you for your time.

I was looking to do the same thing a few weeks ago. Elite quoted me $50 a hole, I needed 5 and couldnt stomach spending $250 on holes. Ended up buying a kit from glass-holes and did it myself. It was very easy, just make sure the panel isn't tempered.

I documented the project as part of my tank build .

You buy the bit from BRS I will drill but there is always a chance of breakage more so with a tank that small

Bulk reef supply and you do it! Watch the vid and go slow. You'll be fine!

Maybe you want to rent me your kit? Make some of your money back and save me the trouble of ordering one.

It's not too much of a kit anymore because I used the bulkheads and plumbing. It does have the overlays, drill bits, and instructions. I have a 3/4 and a 1 1/2 diamond coated bits. I'd let you use what I have for free.
